1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) is a rare HTLV-1-associated malignancy with a dismal prognosis due to intrinsic chemoresistance and immunosuppression. This retrospective EBMT registry analysis evaluated outcomes of allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT) in 73 ATLL patients transplanted between 2004 and 2021. With a median follow-up of 3.9 years, 2-year overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS) were 49% (95% CI 37-60) and 43% (95% CI 31-54), respectively. Non-relapse mortality was 7% at 2 years, while relapse incidence (RI) was 49.8%. Multivariate analysis identified haploidentical donors as associated with improved OS, while non-CR status at transplant was independently associated with significantly worse PFS (HR 2.93, p = 0.01), OS (HR 4.12, p = 0.002), and RI (HR 2.66, p = 0.04) compared to CR. Our findings suggest that allo-SCT represents a feasible and potentially curative consolidation strategy for ATLL patients, with CR at transplant, younger age, and haploidentical donors being independent predictors of improved survival, supporting the importance of disease control, patient selection, and alternative donor strategies.
